We did an indoor regional at Patley Bridge a about 5 years ago. Can't remember the actual location, other than it was in a school just outside Patley.

Thank you

It was the Patley Bridge Club, sadly no longer running. I used to race with them when I first started 10 years ago. They ran in a tiny little hall, probably less than half of what we pit in at York. It used to be quality racing there on a Tuesday night. Rich Newbold, Andy Mitton and a few others used to run it.

Yeah, that's the place. It was good meeting that.

tried an email to http://www.brandlingcommunitycentre.org.uk/carclub.html but it came back as NATA :cry:

anyone remember Gatehead outdoor venue?

Hi Glen.
Gateshead used Bill Quay community farm.
Did Peterlee club hold a regional

Cheers Dave

Peterlee I don't think so

Which school did Gateshead use for big indoor meetings and were they regionals. One event had a wall of death.

Map updated :D

Chevy

did they have an indoor regional there?

remember anything about Peterlee?

I've pm'd Alan C to see if he knows

peterlee no regional i think thay tried for one

I also think Peterlee struck out as far as Regionals were concerned, but they had many a good mud bath race on many a green field or park :lol:

i remember one at hull

also macain sports ground at scarborough

Glenn didnt Durham Club hold some indoor regionals at the school in belmont ? The one that had pitting in the gallery above one end of the hall. I can remember Colin Blades' Mother running the Tuck Shop selling Westler Burgers, Space raiders Crisps.................
Also i can remember two Outdoor regionals at the Cocken Lodge track, one was cancelled as it was flooded and i can remember getting towed out of the field and i can remember another one in the sunshine shortly before the track closed down.
Good Memory lane thread this:thumbsup:

Hull pre 93 and in NE region??

map updated

Macain Sports Ground @ Scarborough, which club ran meetings there?

You can still see the concrete bank corner. Remember trying to get up there with blue full spikes on with 2wd.
